hmmm...I amend my statement. I'd put Margot and Teri in the same area of getting it close to being right.

Both have their own issues in terms of performances (Teri really didn't hit her stride as an actress UNTIL she got older and did Desperate Housewives because she was quite inconsistent as Lois on the show).

I vaguely remember Neill...but i'll have to find that Superman movie with her in it...
